Review on πŸ” Grip-On 111-10 Curved Jaw Locking Pliers: Superior Grip for Versatile Applications by Tony Wilson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Works well and looks like a European style release lever, but screw adjustment is rough at best.

Read more on the tool blog. (toolguyd, great site) They come off much smoother than a regular vise when you pull the lever back to open them. You squeeze the extended lever and they open smoothly. A big improvement when you're hard on something. The bad news is that the threaded set screw appears to be sand filled. It's just poor quality as you would expect from port freight, not quality tools. I disassembled it, oiled the threads and ran it a few times and now it's just . . . cheesy. Maybe it rubs off, but I'm not proud of her.

Pros
  • MADE IN SPANISH: High quality materials for an extremely durable tool
Cons
  • Non automatic
